    My wife used to work for a company who was managed out of state. They had no clue about the DSM market, but they knew more about what DSM needed than the people here. If they would have listened to the local people, they would be so much better off today, but instead they are a shell of...

    I still enjoy the radio. I tend to go back and forth. It's nice to have a little more variety than just what I stream. Problem is local radio has so many ads it's hard to listen to. I enjoy KGGO's 95 mins of non-stop music with no ads, after that I'm out. Omaha has a station that has very...

    KXNO Sports Fanatics

    Its been on life support for a few years now. National decision makers make it hard for local radio to be successful. They give the listeners a bunch of crap to listen to with over half the shows taken up by ads. With streaming music and podcasts their model is so outdated, plus they keep...

    Bill Fennelly

    I feel the best short-term answer is Bill making staff changes. Him set back and be the CEO and let someone else come in and run their offense at the least. He has 2 maybe 3 top tier players in this team. He has had 2 other top tier players the last 8 years and very little to show for it.

    Iowa State cancels remaining gymnastics season

    The staff would have to watch girls from the state of Iowa play and may have to learn who the best players in the state are.

    It looks like University Policy is to spend 5.5% of the regular university endowment a year.

    4%? Hopefully they are getting a better return than that.

    Athletic Dept deficits

    It's not about the fans donating. It's about one fan or a few fans donating a lot. For some reason ISU doesn't have that many high dollar donors willing to give to athletics. It also lacks in corporate donors. To top it off the University takes their cut and the state leaders on both sides...

    If Billy really wants the job he needs to go and coach for someone else for a few years. Maybe get a head coaching job also. He needs 5 years (give or take) away from his dad. The lack of recent outside experience should disqualify him from getting the job. Just like Mouser with football.

    PSU Campbell Presser

    Sounds like a guy taking a new job where all the little things have not got to him at this point. JP was never perfect in all this, but he is not stupid either. He did have a job to do and a budget to keep, something coaches must not understand. CMC always knew the limitations of ISU and...

    What in the world? “Farmageddon” term was specifically banned?

    Sounds like the Big 12 doesn't like it. It's a shame a name and rivalry not forced upon us is not like by the powers that be. Maybe if we can get John Deere or CNH to sponsor it they will like it.

    Klieman seemed to be pressing really hard today. CMC is in his head.

    KXNO Sports Fanatics

    Iowa has a lot of people and publications covering them. Most are fan boys pretending to me media. They tend to stand behind the teams and programs no matter what. Wont call them out on anything. Lots of propping Iowa teams up as well as the teams they play.
